Configure Preview Freezing and error message

[patmitchell]

Hello,
Vixen 3.8 freezes when I click on configure preview as I attempt to edit my current preview. It has happened multiple times today, I updated from 3.74 to 3.8 and it is still occurring. I also have gotten the following error message.

09/13/2021 10:36:45.950 [VersionControl.Module] Error attempting to delete and recreate the repository. System.IO.IOException: The directory is not empty.

Any help would be great!

I am not sure Jon passed it along, but I took a look at the profile under the bug ticket Jon created for it. You can take a look here for the solution.

Jeff,
I've seen this problem in a LOT of non-DIYC programs.
Holding the Shift key while right clicking on program in the task bar gets you additional functions (Windows). Move is one of them.
Using the arrow-keys, the off-screen window can be brought back.

I have used this with Vixen when the modal windows somehow found themselves off the reservation.

In the case of non modal windows, your suggestion generally works, but in this case since it is a modal window, I don't think you will get those options from what I have seen. (There is always a but isn't there?)

I thought it did work on modals, but it has been a while.

Please let us know what finally actually worked.
